COMPETITIVE LANDSCAPE
Quala builds category leadership through flavour innovation and widespread distribution
Quala continues to dominate the concentrates category with a portfolio that includes Suntea, Frutiño, Boka, LightYá and FamiliaYá. Suntea maintains its leadership with over half of total category sales, driven by its broad flavour assortment and strong national marketing campaigns that promote its role as a versatile and affordable beverage for mealtime consumption.
Quala remains the most dynamic company in a declining category
Quala is the only company showing positive performance indicators within the segment, with Suntea and Frutiño continuing to grow in share despite the volume decline of the broader category. No other major competitor has invested significantly in innovation, advertising or distribution, leading to increasing category consolidation around Quala’s brands.
